furnished with ali the modern appli-

Sparks is expressing himself over the
failure of the bills for the repeal OF the
timber culture aud presumption law.
He says:
This result was d misfortune, ii an
agreement upon "a proper bill was possr
ole. The repeal of these laws has been
urged by past anu present commissions
ers of the general land office and score
taries of the treasury, and bill for their
repeal has passed the house under q
| suspension of the rules BY an almost
unanimous vote. But the senate has
loaded the bill with amendments which
in the opinion of the house committee,
and In my opinion, would leave the law
in worse state than if the acts men-
toned remained as they now are. The
senate bill condones fraudulent entries
and opens the door to new frauds, which
! were practically confirmed in advance
by the provisions of the senate amend
| ment. The house confereen pro-
posed that the two houses unite on q
| simple repeal of these pernioious laws.
leaving the other propositions of the
senate committee to come up for delIbera-
tion as independent measures to be
acted upon by both houses on their
merits. This fair proposition the senate
oonferees declined, refusing to unite in
| the repeal except upon conditions which
can have no other meaning than that
the objects sought by the repeal, namely,
the protection of the public lands and
their preservation for actual settlement
should be thwarted by amendments
calculated TO achieve precisely opposite
| results. The principal contest in the com
mlttee OF conference was over the eighth
section OF the senate amendment, which
I regard as q nullitioation of all guards
and restrictions In the public land laws
a reversal of the whole policy of legisla.
ton in respect to the acquisition
of individual titles to public lands;
q repudintion of the pledges OF polltIna
parties and conventions to preserve the
public domain for actual settlement, and
IN short, as the destruction OF the pub
lie land system OF the United States
and perceive that this radical change
can have no other effect than to pro
mote the interests of speculation ant
monopoly. If congress would repea
these laws, under which about one mil.
lion acres of land have been entered
which fully two thirds are undoubtedl,
fraudulent, and give the land depart
ment means to properly enforce tn
remainder, then what is left OF our pnb
lie lands might be protected and save,
/ for homes for actual settlers. But til
senate conferees would not oonsent {
this. Under these circumstances it
better to do nothing than to do worse.
